<HTML><BODY style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; ">We have just released BibleDesktop 1.0.3.<DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>This release makes the viewing of Bible text more pleasant, especially Bibles with lots of notes.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>There are lots of small bug fixes. (e.g. downloads were all saying that the download was 1.9K).</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>There were some changes to support ESV from Crossway, the NET from Bible.org, and the KJV update from Crosswire. These will be released soon.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Support has been added for locked books. You will need to contact the publisher to purchase an unlock key. After installing a locked book, go to the "Installed Books" tab, select the locked book and click on "Unlock". Enter the unlock code you got from the publisher. If you get it wrong, the book won't unlock and you'll know it because viewing it will produce lots of errors and if it does show anything, it will look like junk. If you do get it wrong, just click on the Unlock button again and correct the problem.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>The NET Bible from Bible.org comes in a free edition and a locked edition. The locked edition has lots of notes. There is a problem with the locked edition, which Bible.org is working on and that is the last verse of each chapter shows the notes incorrectly making the verse very hard to read.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>The other locked book which is available is <SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-spacing: 2px 2px;">GerHfa2002 -- Hoffnung fuer alle - Die Bibel. It is a German Bible.</SPAN></DIV><DIV><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-spacing: 2px 2px;"><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></SPAN></DIV><DIV><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-spacing: 2px 2px;">On another note: I have been doing almost all my development for this release on a Mac Mini and BibleDesktop looks better on it than Windows or Linux. It is a very fast and an enjoyably silent machine.</SPAN></DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-spacing: 2px 2px;"></SPAN>Enjoy!<TABLE class="table"><TBODY><TR class="row"><TD valign="top" class="cell"> </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE> </DIV></BODY></HTML>
